fix(newos4): rollback keeps scaffolding, checkpoints cannot collide, tests gate the build

Review of the 08:30 implementer run (v4.6.102, checkpoint name fix). The shipped fix was
correct; these are the defects it introduced or left behind, each measured first.

- virtual-fs.js rollback(): the snapshot strips _snapshots/_sessions/.trash for bloat. Restoring
  it verbatim deleted every checkpoint, every agent session and the trash, made rollback
  irreversible and unrepeatable. Re-attach the live copies after the root swap.
- checkpoint(): names are millisecond-resolution, so tight calls overwrote each other
  (measured 6 calls -> 3 snapshots). Dedupe with a -N suffix, refuse names containing "/"
  (written but unlistable), and prune by snapshot createdAt instead of filename sort, which
  let a custom name ("aaa-oldest") evict newer auto-named checkpoints.
- module-predictor.js: legacy pre-v2 points have no `usable`, so a 0.079 s aborted run
  re-entered similarity as evidence and floored every prediction at 1 s. Backfill `usable`
  from the measurement on load, drop the ones it rejects, add a belt-and-braces guard in
  _findSimilar and count only usable points as actual executions.
- newos4-maintain.py: run every node-runnable modules/test/test-*.js on each maintenance pass.
  The v4.6.102 regression was written but no job ever executed it.
- newos4-steer.py: `done` now requires --commit <sha> that exists in the repo, and gains
  `reopen`. A written plan was being closed as done at 06:17 while the predictor fix shipped
  nowhere, so the implementer's pre-flight queue was empty.
- steering.json: predictor item reopened, checkpoint item stamped with f7249ff.
- maintenance board: MAINT-002/005/015 were fixed in v4.6.81-85 but still listed open/high;
  closed with their commit ids, and MAINT-010/016 annotated with the probes that keep them open.

Tests: test-vfs-checkpoint 23/23 (RED 14/9 before), test-predictor-accuracy 38/38
(T1-T3 RED on HEAD), maintain --fix all PASS, browser round-trip
"Checkpoint created: <name>" -> "Rolled back to checkpoint: <name>" on v4.6.103.

Also carries the already-deployed 2026-10-26 syntax-gate hunk in newos4-maintain.py (syntax_failures + gated rebuild) that had never been committed.
